摘要

Bereaved Liberians dumped 18 sticky corpses outside America's cliff-top embassy in Monrovia last week. Then, struggling to make themselves heard above the roar of machine-guns, they yelled out a simple, heart-felt message: "George Bush, save Liberia!" Then they scattered, as grenades tore up the road. Rebels have attacked Liberia's capital twice in the past month, leaving an estimated 1,000 civilians dead. Tens of thousands more―mostly refugees from around the region―are cowering in the city's rotting football stadiums, its churches and its cavernous Masonic lodge. Most western aid-workers have flown, leaving local fugitives subsisting on roots, grubs and puddle water. Cholera is raging.
